Looking for a newer style mirror

I am trying to find a newer style of mirror for my 56. Something like the Vision indy mirrors only larger. Any ideas?


Thanks

Anyone using something other than stock mirrors?

I need new mirrors for my truck, personally I think they're pretty difficult to find something that works that isn't stock, its way too easy to make it look out of place or like it doesn't fit.

The Indy mirrors you mentioned do look pretty slick:

I ordered the Indy style and they looked hot. However, once I held them up to the truck they were way to small in size. Only 2-1/2" high and the actual mirror size was smaller still so I sent them back.

What I am trying to find is a similar style but overall larger, say 4-5" hieght.

hmm... that might have to be done custom, I'll keep an eye out for such a thing.
